Orchard Books:: NY, 1999. This is a humorous depiction of the thought processes of Melville Murrell from Tennessee as he worked out the details of his early flying machine. The illustrations are superb, and the viewpoint of the neighbors as he pursues his dream is amusing. The author's endnote sounds a little argumentative, though. Although it was a wonderful achievement, it is not difficult to see the Wright brothers' plane had more potential for practical application.
